The annual American Cancer Society Crusade to save more lives through research, education and service will be launched in Morrow county on April 20. Rev. Kenneth Robinson, county chairman, said that preparation for this year's Crusade will con centrate on more etfective train ing of volunteers to the door- to-door bell ringing which is so important in raising funds and educating the public in way3 to protect themselves -from death from cancer. "Against this background of training," Rev. Robinson said, "we can expect a most success ful Crusade, surpassing last year's $1,197 raised and life saving educational leaflets dis tributed." Rev. Robinson urged all those wishing to volunteer "in this vital struggle against possible death from cancer" to contact him by phoning 676-9940 or write- to Box 215, Heppner, for information about training. "We need volunteers and we must saturate the community with life-saving information if we are to do the job we are called upon to do." The American Cancer Society explains that it is now possible to save at least one out of two of those who develop cancer, but only one out of three is actually being saved. "This means," Rev. Robinson said, "some 90,000 per sons will die of cancer this year simply because they did not get to their doctors in time for early diagnosis and prompt treat ment." Society's No. 1 goal in the April Crusade will be saving those lives that are lost unnecessarily and "that means getting every one to a doctor in time for early detection and prompt treatment. Delay can be fatal. One's best protection against death from cancer is an annual health checkup. The annual checkup should be observed as regularly as a birthday." The second goal, he said, will be to raise money for research, education and service. "The hope of saving half of those who de velop cancer rests in research, and with the growing number of scientists involved in it," he added.
